Question

How long do you think the UPC barcode has been around, or when do you think it came into widespread use? And second, what's the big deal about this boring batch of numbers and lines? How has it impacted our lives, and how does it connect to our discussion of globalization and the geography of clothes?

Usually when we think of environmental issues we think of things like auto emissions and factory pollution, and how they relate to issues of clean air and clean water, and global warming. But clothes? How are the clothes on your back an environmental issue? It may well be the first time you've ever thought about it, but how might our current system of producing clothes be damaging the environment?
